[INTRO]
F  G  Em  Am
F  G  Em  Am

[VERSE]
F    G                    Em   Am
I am the cavalry captain, I am the remedy to your heart
F    G                     Em   Am

And when you shine, shine your eyes, looking lost, looking bright
        F                   G
Wheel away on the light brigade
       F
And if only for a second (only for a second)
       G
And if only for a time (only for a time)
       F
And if only for a second (only for a second)
       G
And if only for a time, we'll be alive
